UFC-veteranen och kommentatorn Kenny Florian tycker att Ronda Rousey måste byta coach, då hennes nuvarande tränare Edmond Tarverdyan inte håller måttet.
Efter 48-sekunders-förlusten mot Amanda Nunes (14-4) på UFC 207 har mycket av snacket efter galan handlat om Ronda Rouseys (12-2) träningssituation och huruvida hon fått rätt coaching inför sin återkomst till UFC.

UFC-kommentatorerna Jon Anik och Kenny Florian är några som ifrågasätter Rouseys träning. De menar att Rousey inte ska ha sparrat mycket alls under sin uppvärmning för matchen. Det berättar Florian på sin podcast:
“My understanding is that perhaps Rousey didn’t really spar leading up to this fight. I get that they’re trying to preserve her from not getting hurt. But you’ve got to have some rounds. You’ve got to ready for the worst case scenario, which is Amanda Nunes striking with you. She wasn’t able to move her head, do anything defensively to avoid the striking skills of Amanda Nunes, and really paid for it.”
”Behöver mycket bättre coachning”
Kenny Florian menar att Rousey måste byta tränare, då hennes nuvarande coach Edmond Tarverdyan inte har hängt med i gamet:
“Combat is such an interesting thing. You see how quickly it can evolve. If you do not keep up with it, we see it time and time again, you will be left behind. For Rousey I think she is a tremendous talent, she did so many amazing things in this sport, but I think she is loyal to a fault.
“I like Edmond. I spoke to him in various occassions, but he doesn’t have the experience for high level mixed martial arts. That’s my opinion. He hasn’t been keeping up with it.
“I just think she needs a knowledgeable, experienced coach, wherever that is. She’s going to need much better coaching, and a much better team around her. That’s for sure.”
Enligt den forne UFC-fightern Florian kan Rousey fortfarande mycket väl utmana inom divisionen hon så länge dominerade. Han medger samtidigt att det var bekymmersamt att inte se några förbättringar hos Rousey sedan förlusten mot Holly Holm (10-2).
“Nothing was working for her. She wasn’t moving her head. Her hands started dropping. She was running right into very big shots,” Florian said.
“She had 411 days to improve as a striker, and unfortunately for her, just wasn’t able to get it done. There really was no difference in what she did against Holly Holm. There was no head movement. There was no variety, There were no angles.
